Reblogging this for the weekday crowd. It’s vitally important and I don’t want us to lose sight of it among everything else going on right now.

Why does City of Toronto 🇨🇦 only build purpose-built accessible recreation in Scarborough? My west-end wheelchair using self wants places close to home to sport too. We can’t all sit in transit for an hour plus for recreation.
